One time when I had my old 5kTD (turbodiesel), the positive battery
terminal fell off the battery somewhere during a 3 hour drive. I
didn't notice until the interior light didn't come on when I opened
the door after stopping the engine.. I guess I was lucky.. But the
most advanced electronics in that car was probably my CD player.. :-)
